This is a presentation-only concern and does not affect the simulation, consistent with REQ-UI-NO-ZOOM. - REQ-UI-WORLD-ICON: In the game world, a building is drawn with an icon's glyph symbol centered on its footprint, in place of the letter identity glyph. The icon is an SVG loaded from `data/icons/buildings/`; only the icon's glyph is drawn in the world — in a contrasting ink (white over dark fills, dark over light fills) so it stays legible — and its colored chip background is omitted, because the footprint is already filled with the building's `visuals.toml` fill color. This applies to the production buildings (Miner, Smelter, Assembler, Reprocessing Plant, Shipyard, Salvage Bay), the HQ, and the player and enemy defence stations, wherever the identity label appears: operational buildings, construction sites (REQ-UI-CONSTRUCTION-PROGRESS), and the builder-mode and blueprint-placement ghosts. **Belts, splitters, and tunnels are excluded** — they keep their existing tile rendering so their orientation and flow stay readable (a centered icon would obscure direction). Their build-menu buttons still use icons (REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON); in particular the shared Tunnel button's `tunnel_entry.svg` is a build-button icon only, not a world icon. The directional output-port glyphs (REQ-UI-PORT-GLYPH, REQ-UI-PORT-TARGET-GLYPH) are a separate indicator and are unaffected. A building or station with no icon file falls back to its `visuals.toml` text glyph; a type with neither icon nor glyph shows no identity label. A missing icon is not an error, consistent with REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON. -- REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON: In the game world, an item is drawn as its `visuals.toml` colored square (`fill` + `outline`, the square of REQ-GW-TILE-SIZE) carrying its **item icon** on top. The square is drawn for every item, with or without an icon: it is what gives the item contrast against the tile beneath it, and its outline is what separates neighbouring items where they overlap on a belt. The icon is a self-contained, full-color SVG (rendered as-is, unlike the glyph-only building icons of REQ-UI-WORLD-ICON), loaded at runtime from `data/icons/items/` — a sibling of the config directory, read the same way as the building icons (REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON) — one file per item type named after the item's id (e.g. `iron_ore.svg`). The square fills the item's half-tile rect, keeping the size, spacing, and draw-order rules of REQ-GW-TILE-SIZE; the icon is drawn **inset** within that rect so a frame of the square's color stays visible all around it — required because each icon's viewBox is cropped tight to its artwork, so an icon drawn at the full rect would cover the square entirely. This applies wherever an item is drawn: on belts, splitters, and tunnel ends, and while emerging from or sinking into a building port (REQ-MAT-OUTPUT-EMERGE, REQ-MAT-INPUT-INTAKE). An item type with no icon file shows the colored square alone; a missing icon is not an error, consistent with REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON. **The colored square travels with the icon into the UI.** Wherever the UI displays an item *as an item* — the recipe-selection dialog's option buttons (REQ-UI-RECIPE-ICON), the selection panel's item chips (REQ-UI-SINGLE-SELECTION, REQ-UI-HQ-PANEL), and the recipe summary's input and output icons (REQ-UI-RECIPE-SUMMARY) — the icon is drawn on that same square, by the same rules: the item's `fill` and `outline` from `visuals.toml`, the icon inset within the square so a frame of the square's color stays visible all around it, and the square alone when the item has no icon file. The square fills the rect the display allots to the icon, as it fills the half-tile rect in the world. One item therefore reads the same in a panel as it does on a belt. The one exception is the inline `building_block` icon that stands in for the word `Blocks` beside a number (REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON, REQ-UI-EXPAND-BUTTON, REQ-UI-BUILD-COST, REQ-UI-MULTI-SELECTION, REQ-UI-BLUEPRINT-CARD): there the icon is a decoration on a line of text rather than an item display, and it is drawn bare, without the square. For performance, each item icon is rasterized to a pixmap cached per target pixel size — re-rasterized only when the tile pixel size changes (e.g. on view resize) — rather than re-rendered from vector every frame. +- REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON: In the game world, an item is drawn as its `visuals.toml` colored square (`fill` + `outline`, the square of REQ-GW-TILE-SIZE) carrying its **item icon** on top.

Below the symbol — or centered on the footprint if the building has neither an icon nor a glyph — a construction progress percentage is shown (integer, e.g. `42%`), increasing from 0% to 100% as construction completes. - REQ-UI-PORT-GLYPH: Every output port of every building is indicated by a directional glyph drawn on the port's tile. The glyph is a `>` rotated to face the port's exit direction (`>` for East, `^` for North, `<` for West, `v` for South). It is drawn at the midpoint between the tile center and the tile edge that the port exits through (i.e. halfway from center toward the exit edge). The indicator is rendered for all building states: operational buildings, construction sites, and the builder-mode ghost. Buildings with multiple output ports (e.g. splitters) show one indicator per port. - REQ-UI-PORT-TARGET-GLYPH: While in builder mode (REQ-BLD-BUILDER-MODE), the builder-mode ghost additionally shows, for each of the building's output ports, a directional glyph drawn centered in the port's **target cell** — the cell immediately outside the footprint that the port pushes into, i.e. the cell the surface-mask output-port indicator occupies (see Surface Mask Format). As in REQ-UI-PORT-GLYPH the glyph is a `>` rotated to face the port's exit direction (`>` East, `^` North, `<` West, `v` South), previewing where the port's output will go before placement. This is in addition to the on-tile port glyph of REQ-UI-PORT-GLYPH, and — unlike that indicator — is shown only for the builder-mode ghost, not for operational buildings, construction sites, or the blueprint-placement ghost (REQ-UI-BLUEPRINT-PLACE). A building with multiple output ports (e.g. a splitter) shows one target-cell glyph per port. The target-cell glyph is drawn larger than the on-tile port glyph so it stands out as the flow-direction preview. Exceptions: the Tunnel Entry shows no target-cell glyph, because it receives items (which may arrive from any of its non-mouth edges, REQ-BLD-TUNNEL-ENTRY) rather than emitting into a single adjacent cell; the Shipyard shows none either, because its output port is a ship-spawn point (REQ-SHP-SPAWN-PLAYER) rather than a belt-item output (REQ-MAT-OUTPUT-EMERGE). @@ -580,7 +581,7 @@ The panel shows exactly one **content** at a time, picked from the catalog in RE - **Debris** — several pieces of debris and nothing else.

An item may have several producers — an iron ingot is smelted from ore, smelted from scrap, and recovered by reprocessing — and the building icon and recipe name are what tell those lines apart and tell the player which building to place for which path. + + **Only unlocked recipes are listed** (REQ-LOCK-UI-RECIPE), consistent with the rest of the UI hiding what the player cannot make yet. Two cases have no recipe line to show, and each says so in place of the list rather than leaving the tooltip bare: + - **An item no recipe produces at all.** Scrap is salvaged from debris (REQ-RES-DEBRIS-DROP) rather than crafted, so its tooltip reads `Salvaged from debris` in place of the `Produced by` caption and lists nothing beneath it. + - **An item whose every producing recipe is still locked.** The caption stays `Produced by`, and the single line beneath it reads `Undiscovered`: the player is told the item is made somehow, without being shown a path they have not unlocked yet. + + The tooltip belongs to item chips only. The selection dialog shows no tooltips at all, its buttons describing themselves (REQ-UI-SELECT-OPTIONS), and the icons of the recipe summary line (REQ-UI-RECIPE-SUMMARY) show none either: they are parts of one line that already describes one recipe, rather than standalone item displays. - REQ-UI-BELT-CLEAR: When one or more belt, splitter, tunnel entry, or tunnel exit tiles are selected, the panel's runtime group shows a **"Clear stuck items"** button that removes all items from the selected tiles. Clearing a tunnel entry or exit also discards all items currently in transit through that tunnel (REQ-BLD-TUNNEL-TRANSIT). This can be used to resolve stalled belts, splitters, and tunnels. The button acts on every selected tile, which is why a selection of belts and tunnel ends aggregates into one content rather than a count summary (REQ-UI-SELECTION-AGGREGATE). -- REQ-UI-HQ-PANEL: When the HQ is selected, the panel shows the HQ's **HP** as a bar labelled `current / maximum` (REQ-HQ-STATS, REQ-UI-HP-BARS) and, beneath it, the **global building blocks stock** — the same value as the header bar's stock display (REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON), rendered as an item chip (REQ-UI-SINGLE-SELECTION) carrying the `building_block` icon on its colored square — a chip is an item display, so it takes the square even though the header bar's inline block icon does not (REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON, REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON). The HP comes first, as it does on every card that has it (REQ-UI-SELECTION-CARD). The HQ has no input or output buffers of its own: building blocks delivered by belt go straight into the global stock (REQ-HQ-BELT-INPUT), and showing that stock on the HQ is what tells the player to route blocks there. The HQ has no configuration group and no status indicator (REQ-UI-SELECTION-STATUS), and it is never a construction site. +- REQ-UI-HQ-PANEL: When the HQ is selected, the panel shows the HQ's **HP** as a bar labelled `current / maximum` (REQ-HQ-STATS, REQ-UI-HP-BARS) and, beneath it, the **global building blocks stock** — the same value as the header bar's stock display (REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON), rendered as an item chip (REQ-UI-SINGLE-SELECTION) carrying the `building_block` icon on its colored square — a chip is an item display, so it takes the square even though the header bar's inline block icon does not (REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON, REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON), and hovering it shows the item production tooltip as any other chip does (REQ-UI-ITEM-TOOLTIP). The HP comes first, as it does on every card that has it (REQ-UI-SELECTION-CARD). The HQ has no input or output buffers of its own: building blocks delivered by belt go straight into the global stock (REQ-HQ-BELT-INPUT), and showing that stock on the HQ is what tells the player to route blocks there. The HQ has no configuration group and no status indicator (REQ-UI-SELECTION-STATUS), and it is never a construction site. - REQ-UI-ENTITY-CLICK-SELECT: The player can click any ship (player or enemy) or any defence station (player or enemy) in the game world to select it. A plain click on a ship or defence station makes it the sole selection, clearing any previous selection. Ships and defence stations can be multi-selected — by Ctrl+clicking individual actors to add or remove them, or by box-drag (REQ-UI-MULTI-SELECT) — and can be selected together with debris and with one another in a single field selection (REQ-UI-SELECTION-CATEGORIES), freely mixing player and enemy actors. Actors cannot be selected together with buildings: selecting a ship or defence station clears any building selection, and selecting a building clears the actors (buildings win). Clicking a piece of debris adds to or establishes a field selection (REQ-UI-DEBRIS-CLICK-SELECT). Clicking empty world space (no building, ship, defence station, or piece of debris) clears the selection. - REQ-UI-SHIP-STATS-PANEL: When exactly one ship is selected (REQ-UI-ENTITY-CLICK-SELECT) and no debris is selected, the selection panel shows a **ship stats panel**. (If debris is also selected, the panel shows the compact count summary instead, per REQ-UI-FIELD-MULTI-SELECTION.) The panel structure mirrors REQ-MOD-UI-STATS-PANEL but reflects the ship's actual live state: stats are computed from its installed modules per REQ-MOD-STAT-CALC. Its header (REQ-UI-SELECTION-CARD) carries the schematic's color swatch and display name, with the ship's current behavior in the right slot (REQ-UI-SHIP-BEHAVIOR). The panel always shows all hull stats: HP (current / maximum) as a **bar** with the two values beside its caption, then max linear speed, sensor range, main acceleration, maneuvering acceleration, angular acceleration, and max rotation speed as label/value rows. In addition, capability module summaries are shown below the hull stats, each as its own outlined row, conditioned on which module types are installed and using the same aggregation rules as REQ-MOD-UI-STATS-PANEL: weapons (combined DPS, maximum range), salvage (combined collection rate, maximum range), and repair (combined repair rate, maximum range), each appearing only if at least one instance of that module type is installed. While debug draw mode is active (REQ-UI-DEBUG-DRAW), the panel additionally shows the ship's derived threat cost (REQ-MOD-THREAT). - REQ-UI-SHIP-BEHAVIOR: The ship stats panel (REQ-UI-SHIP-STATS-PANEL) additionally displays the selected ship's **current behavior** in its header's right slot (REQ-UI-SELECTION-CARD) — a single label naming the top-priority behavior currently governing the ship's navigation, as resolved by the fixed-priority behavior arbitration. Only the winning behavior is named; lower-priority behaviors that are suppressed are not shown, and neither are the salvage/repair cycles that run regardless of the active behavior (REQ-SHP-SALVAGE, REQ-SHP-REPAIR). The label updates live as the ship's behavior changes, and it is always shown (independent of debug draw mode, unlike the threat-cost line of REQ-UI-SHIP-STATS-PANEL). This applies to both player and enemy ships (REQ-UI-ENTITY-CLICK-SELECT); enemy ships only ever show **Engaging** or **Advancing**. The behavior labels (all wrapped in `tr()`) are: @@ -626,7 +636,7 @@ The panel shows exactly one **content** at a time, picked from the catalog in RE - REQ-UI-BUILD-COST: Each button is **icon-only with a cost**, its face composed of three elements: the button's **hotkey badge** in the top-left corner, the building's icon (REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON) centered below it, and the building block cost centered under the icon, shown with the `building_block` item icon (REQ-UI-BLOCKS-ICON, REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON) to the right of the number in place of the trailing `Blocks` word, e.g. `2` then a small block icon. The building name is not shown on the button; it is shown in the button's hover tooltip instead (REQ-UI-BUILD-TOOLTIP). When no icon file exists for `building_block`, the cost is shown as the bare number. The Deconstruct button (REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON) has no cost and shows its name as a text caption in the cost's place. - **Hotkey badge.** The badge names the build hotkey that activates the button (REQ-UI-HOTKEYS), so the player can learn the shortcuts from the bar itself. It is rendered dimmer than the cost so it reads as secondary, but at the same size and in bold, because a smaller badge is not legible. A plain-digit hotkey is shown as the bare digit (`1`, `2`, `3`); a Shift+digit hotkey is shown with an upwards arrow prefixed and no separator (`↑1` … `↑6`); the Deconstruct button shows `Q`. A button whose building type has no build hotkey shows no badge and keeps the same face size, so the row stays even. - REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON: Each build button shows an icon. Icons are SVG files loaded at runtime from `data/icons/buildings/` (a sibling of the config directory, read the same way as `visuals.toml`), one file per button named after the building's id (e.g. `belt.svg`, `reprocessing_plant.svg`). The shared Tunnel button (REQ-UI-BUILD-BAR) uses `tunnel_entry.svg`; the Deconstruct button (REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON) uses `deconstruct.svg`. Each icon is a rounded colored "chip" bearing a white line glyph, the chip color following the building's fill color in `visuals.toml`. A missing icon file leaves the button showing its building name as a text caption in place of the icon, so the button stays identifiable in the icon-only bar (REQ-UI-BUILD-COST); it is not an error. -- REQ-UI-BUILD-TOOLTIP: Each building-type button shows a hover tooltip consisting of the building name followed by the descriptive text defined for that building type in `buildings.toml` (the optional per-building tooltip field). Because the button caption is icon-only (REQ-UI-BUILD-COST), the name is always part of the tooltip; if a building type defines no tooltip text, the tooltip shows the name alone. This tooltip is distinct from the recipe/schematic selection tooltip (REQ-UI-SELECT-TOOLTIP). The Deconstruct button (REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON) is not a building type and so has no config-defined tooltip; it instead shows its own refund tooltip defined in REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON. +- REQ-UI-BUILD-TOOLTIP: Each building-type button shows a hover tooltip consisting of the building name followed by the descriptive text defined for that building type in `buildings.toml` (the optional per-building tooltip field). Because the button caption is icon-only (REQ-UI-BUILD-COST), the name is always part of the tooltip; if a building type defines no tooltip text, the tooltip shows the name alone. This tooltip is distinct from the item production tooltip of the selection panel's item chips (REQ-UI-ITEM-TOOLTIP); the recipe/schematic selection dialog has no tooltip at all (REQ-UI-SELECT-OPTIONS). The Deconstruct button (REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON) is not a building type and so has no config-defined tooltip; it instead shows its own refund tooltip defined in REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON. - REQ-UI-BUILD-DISABLED: Buttons for buildings the player cannot currently afford are shown as disabled. A disabled button's icon (REQ-UI-BUILD-ICON) is rendered in a greyed variant, with its colored chip background recolored grey while the white glyph is retained. - REQ-UI-DECONSTRUCT-BUTTON: A dedicated **Deconstruct** button is shown in the build button bar (REQ-UI-BUILD-BAR), as the last entry of the row and **visually separated** from the building-type buttons by a gap (not a divider line), because it toggles a mode rather than selecting a building type. Its face follows REQ-UI-BUILD-COST with two differences: its hotkey badge reads `Q`, and because it has no building block cost it shows its **Deconstruct** name as a text caption where the building-type buttons show their cost — so it is the one labelled button in the bar. It is therefore wider than the building-type buttons, which share a uniform width. Clicking it toggles deconstruct mode on and off, equivalent to the Q deconstruct toggle (REQ-UI-HOTKEYS). The button is shown in a visually active/pressed state while deconstruct mode is active. The button shows a hover tooltip stating the deconstruction refund (REQ-BLD-DECONSTRUCT): that deconstructing a fully-built building returns `world.toml [world].refund_percentage` percent of its building block cost once deconstruction completes, and that a construction site removed before it finishes building is refunded in full. When `refund_percentage` is 100% both cases yield the same refund, and the tooltip is simplified to state the single refund percentage without distinguishing the two cases. Unlike the building-type button tooltips (REQ-UI-BUILD-TOOLTIP), this tooltip is not config-defined text but is composed from the refund percentage.
